Applications of tuned amplifier

 

A tuned amplifier is a type of electronic device designed to amplify specific ranges of electrical signals while ignoring or blocking others. It finds common use in devices that work with radio frequency signals such as radios, televisions, and other types of communication equipment; however, it also can be useful in many other applications. Tuned amplifiers can be found in aircraft autopilot systems, audio systems, scientific instruments, spacecraft, or anywhere else there is a need to select and amplify specific electronic signals while ignoring others.

 

The most common tuned amplifiers an average person interacts with can be found in home or portable entertainment equipment, such as FM stereo receivers. An FM radio has a tuned amplifier that allows listening to only one radio station at a time. When the knob is turned to change the station, it adjusts a variable capacitor, inductor, or similar device inside the radio, which alters the inductive load of the tuned amplifier circuit. This retunes the amplifier to allow a different specific radio frequency to be amplified so a different radio station can be heard.
